Today’s the day that we all finally enter the stage of destiny. We mentioned a few weeks back that there’s amassive team of composersbehind theSoulCalibur Vsoundtrack that includes Hiroki Kikuta (Secret of Mana), Cris Velasco (God of War,Darksiders), Inon Zur (Dragon Age,Crysis), and Andrew “zircon” Aversa from OverClocked ReMix along with others. Similar to the sound team profiles we prepared forFinal Fantasy XIII-2last week, OSV published asimilar featuredetailing each of the artists involved withSoulCaliburV.

Namco Bandai’s Junichi Nakatsuru talks about acting as the glue linkingSoulCaliburVto past titles as the only contributor to work on everySoulCaliburtitle to date while Kikuta gets philosophical, Zur and Velasco discuss the differences between Western and Japanese game development, and Aversa gives advice to up-and-coming composers.
